She counts the dead so she never forgets why she started.
At six years old, Ha-eun crawled out from under her mother's corpse—the sole survivor of a wedding massacre that claimed 217 members of her family. Two years later, a mysterious woman named Hwa-young pulled her from the ruins and forged her into a weapon of precise, patient vengeance.
Now twenty-seven, Ha-eun keeps a ledger. Every bullet. Every blade. Every broken neck. The number sits at 157—and it is still not enough.
But when a routine hit leads her to spare a young guard whose daughter bears her dead sister's name, Ha-eun's path takes an unexpected turn. Guided by a disgraced former analyst, she hunts the men who ordered the massacre—only to discover that the architect of her revenge may have also been the architect of her family's destruction.
Haunted by the mentor who shaped her and the ghosts of everyone she lost, Ha-eun must decide: Is she a weapon, a monster, or something more human?
Ha-eun's Revenge is a visceral, unflinching thriller about grief, trauma, and the terrifying cost of turning yourself into a bullet aimed at the past. Contains graphic violence, torture, and themes of profound loss.
